After a previous failed cycle, we had two 5 days AA embryos transferred. They were of an excellent quality.. On day 6 I tested positive. It only got darker till day 8. On day 9 it got lighter. Day 10 even lighter. Today I had my bloods done and its super low 12miu. Stupid digital clearblue still showing 1-2 weeks pregnant. Which is obvious, it detects from 10miu. I still get faint lines. But they are light. To say I'm devastated is an understatement. I wish I never got the BFP. Now it feels like a proper loss. Loss of the baby I've never seen. Babies ill never get to meet. My consultant told me to do another blood test on Saturday.. And if nothing changed to stop medication. She said there is a tiny chance. But most likely it's a chemical pregnancy.. I actually screamed so hard once I've put the phone down when she told me. The pain is overwhelming. I can feel it with every inch of my body.I also found out today that my aunt is on life support with 95% of lungs effected. I feel like I'm going to loose the plot. I guess I just want to see if anyone had such a low level at 10 days post transfer and had a successful pregnancy after... Looking for anything to keep going till Saturday.. P. S been having stomach cramps too and boobs gone back to normal after being sore last few days. I am sure it's over but still trying to cling onto hope it may work... Xx

I’m so sorry 😞 my heart is literally going out to you right now ❤️I will keep everything crossed for you…
Stay strong…you will get through this xx
Sounds like the day from hell. Keeping everything crossed for you too and sending lots of positivity and hugs your way 💞
I’m so sorry that you are having such a difficult time. Sending huge hugs xxx
I'm really sorry to hear this, I know exactly how you feel, this happened to me in April. I will keep my fingers crossed for a good result on Saturday xxxx
I'm so sorry for your loss... I don't know how to recover from this.. In my early 20th Ive had a miscarage and undeveloped pregnancy which I had to abort. It was devastating. I've then had my daughter who is 9 now. Honestly she is the one who keeps me going atm. Her asking me mummy why you crying saves me from total meltdown... 😢 Me and my husband are dreaming of a baby together, he has no kids and we have been trying so long. This chemical pregnancy is another level of pain. Its killing me X hope your OK now, I sooo understand how devastating this is. This is our 2nd round... X
I don’t mean to offer false hope but I remember when I suddenly got really light lines after very clear lines but returned to normal the next day. It maybe that I was super hydrated and diluted the hcg even with the first urine if the day. I didn’t do bloods so I wouldn’t know in that regard. I would just keep hoping and praying till Saturday hun and possibly do another test first thing in the morning (although maybe not a good idea) surely it’s still really early days isn’t it? I pray that you have good numbers Saturday xxx
I don't have hope tbh, they were gradually getting lighter. And 3/4 different brands. My bloods are 12mui but my progesterone is 54 which is great apparently. But my doctor doesn't seem hopeful at all.. And nor am I tbh. 12mui is so so little at this stage tests are getting lighter by an hour and some don't show lines at all anymore 😢😭 she said do a test on Saturday and if it's not positive anymore you don't need to do bloods. Just stop the medication and wait for you period... Xxx just had such shit few weeks with something happening every day... X
Awww lovely, I'm so super sorry to see you post. Im so sorry about your Aunt too. I've been in a similar position....my tests went so dark each day...however my levels didnt increase as they should. I cant say enough....you are not alone. It's just devastating and nothing will make it feel better but time. Sending you massive hugs and love.xxx
So sorry you are going through this. I know exactly how you feel. It happened to me 3 weeks ago. Hope you will have a nice surprise on Saturday! Sending you loads of hugs and a massive good luck! X
I'm so sorry you went through this, I don't think I'll be going on Saturday.. My doctor said if the tests are negative on Saturday morning just to stop medication... Lines started getting less dark 2 days ago so tonight the line is non existent already X we will get out happy ending one day ❤️
I been in this situation 3 times believe is or not and I will be honest you, all 3 transfers ended in chemicals. You have to look at the positive side .. usually if you had a chemical than next transfer you have a greater chance to succeed. We been successful with our 4th transfer and on steroids that helped my pregnancy progress. I am really sorry that you have to experience all this stress 😞 take care of yourself 🤗💕
I’m so sorry to read this. We went through exactly the same thing this week. It’s devastating pm me if u want to chat xxx I hope your ok xxx
So sorry, I know the feeling ❤ xx
So sorry you are having this difficult moment, just know this too shall pass. I wish you all the best. Lot of hugs.
I'm so sorry for your pain x
So sorry to hear x sending prayers 💕🙏
I'm so sorry, I had two back to back this year on fresh transfers and both very painful emotionally. Seeing the lines fade and waiting for the HCG to drop to zero was crushing. The only glimmer of hope I can offer is we were told that if it implanted it's really positive to get that far and it rules out a lot of potential problems. Also it doesn't mean you won't have success - I had a FET the month after my last chemical and am now 12 weeks. My way of dealing with it was to keep going but everyone is different and you may need time especially if you have other things to deal with x
Oh congratulations ❤️❤️❤️ Hearing success stories at this painful time gives me the hope I so need 💕 Me and my husband spoke and decided to do the next transfer straight away.. Its so so painful your so right 💕 I think after years of trying and finally seeing them lines makes your heart beat and then seeing them dissappeare and be told I'm so sorry your levels are so low and its a chemical and it happens.. A lot... But everything will work out!... I know X
How fast did you start the very next cycle post chemicals? I don't want to wait at all. I know I need to have one period and can do it on the next? Xx
I had the bleed a few days after stopping the meds with the chemical, then only had to wait until my next natural period to start the FET meds, so it was literally one month later. I think some clinics (especially NHS) want you to have one further natural period in between though. 🍀
Thank you! Yeah I'll be doing the same we have a private doctor, I only deal with her and she has been amazing from day one. She is always on the other end of the phone. Day and night... We had to go private from the beginning, coz I already have a daughter. But that's exactly what me and my hubby will be doing. We both don't want to wait 💕🌷👶👶👶 hope to see your little bubba pic when you have guven birth X🌸
I am sorry that this happened.. but I want you to know.. you are not alone... Last July, we transferred 3AA 5day embryo which also turned to chemical pregnancy. My doctor says that eventhough it turned out chemical it's still a good sign that it implanted. I was so sad at first and felt tired that I just want to give up with all this IVF journey as this was our 2nd IVF already. The first one we didn't reach to transfer as we decided to do pgt testing on our 4 embryos and all abnormal. But I continue to hold on our faith. On our 2nd ivf we got 3 embryos but we decided not to test this time and the 1st transfer last July was the chemical. One month ago.. September we transferred our 2nd embryo, 3AB 5 day embryo and now I am 6 weeks pregnant with fetal pole and 107 heart rate. I have read on one of the comments here that there is greater chance to get pregnant after chemical, I am one of them.I will be praying for you.
Oh congratulations ♥️♥️♥️ it's so so amazing to hear!! I hope you have the most easy pregnancy and enjoy every moment of it 🌷💕Ive spent 3 days in and out of being hysterical.. Told my mother in law yesterday and my best friend( no one knew about us doing it again) and after talking to them feel better and more positive x want to try accupancture... And we decided to go straight away for a next one. I've already started bleeding so on my next natural cycle I'll be going for the next round.. We still have 9 ❄️🙏We have male factor infertility, so I've been pregnant 3 times before, all naturally (years ago) and lost 2 babies out of 3, was quite far gone too.. Have a 9yo daughter(from previous relationship) who I had to tell about it, coz she keeps on seeing mummy crying and she is very understanding bless her. Honestly if I wouldnt have my baby girl I think the whole of ivf process would kill me. Thank you for your kind words and a happy ending story🌹🌷 its incredibly important at times like this 🌺 xxx
